True, but more Sergs would be okay.

Post by: aleera84 on April 19, 2005, 11:25:48 am: I think I would date a deaf guy.
A blind person would be more dependant on you and perhaps it would stress the relationship.

Post by: Afterglow on April 21, 2005, 02:56:29 am: I like the blind ones because they can see better than us. They pay attention in everything around them. And a dog would be a great help for them.

You couldn't get enough :razz:

And about the deaf... they explode

Post by: amberbeads on April 21, 2005, 05:16:12 am: I chose blind because if they can't see you they can only love you for who you truly are, and not what you look like. Deaf wouldn't be that bad, either, but I think there's just something about hearing someone say "I love you" that can't be captured with sign language.

Post by: Mountaineer on April 25, 2005, 05:07:07 pm: I would dare a blind guy. Cus we could talk about stuff like music and he would be able to hear me. Blind people have great touch. 8) :oops:

What? Yeah right, because it takes the English language, complete with its all conquering beauty, to truely communicate the meaning in "I love you".

What about in French? Or German? Or Chinese? Or does it just have to be communicated via sound waves to carry the "just something" that you mentioned?

Clearly the words "I love you" are just sounds. Vibrations of the air, which in turn vibrate the ear drum, which eventually produces electrical signals in the brain. Romantic eh?

Eventually, these signals cease to be purely the product of physical and biochemical processes and become to us the concious understanding that the communicator loves us. Only at this point do the words have meaning to us and emotional repercussions.

Whether "I love you" reaches us through the audio or optical pathways of the brain is irrelevant. And it's insulting to deaf people to suggest (so wrongly) that they are lacking anything in the experiences of love because they lack just one of the physical senses.

Post by: tylor2000 on April 26, 2005, 01:50:19 am: I'd date both of them at the same time. Then I could be heard and seen. It might actually be easier to pull off. How could they communicate with each other? Perfect set up. :D

I would most likely date either one. It would be an interesting experience if nothing else. I wouldn't get rid of them based on just that.

Post by: Holly on April 26, 2005, 10:01:14 am: even if a deaf person couldn't say I love you, you can also know someone loves you by the way they look at you... the feel you get from their gaze

You also can tell from the way someone touches you. If fact, it is a better determinate, especailly if by, "I love you," you mean infatuation, or I want to tear you clothes off and such..... ;) Of course some people can fake anything....

Helen Hunt is a great actor. In the show, " Mad about you," justs the way she touches him I can relate too. It looks like real effection between a real couple. Great stuff.
